Samsung, Dell and Intel together joined to make an Open Interconnect consortium to establish how smart devices work together called "The Internet Of Things". The aim behind this consortium is to promote standards that help in the development of internet of things.

In early days like video cassettes were compatible with each other but currently smart home products are incompatible with each other. So these companies are backing up a "Framework" for promoting standards ways for household products like thermostats, bulbs etc to talk to each other-To be compatible with each other. This common communication framework wirelessly connect and intelligently manage the information flow of the devices regardless of their service provider or operating system.

Technology kings like Google and Apple are also planning their own ways of interconnecting there household devices.

The basic idea behind this is to allow interoperability for all kinds of devices and operating systems.
